MANCHESTER, Dec. 2l.-The Guordidn says:
The market was tame and inactive. In some
few cases fair progress has been made. but
oftener sellers have been disappointed There
is no lack OF inquiry in most departments, but
the divergence prevented an agreement as to
prices. There is no sign of removal of the
difficulty by a rise in distributing markets,
while supplies continue ample. Transactions in
yarns for Eastern, home and minor foreign
markets have been few and unimportant Prices
are firm. Sellers are vainly trying to obtain an
advance There have been some sales of export
yarns for India, China and Japan at full prices,
but the quantity was small For home con
sumption progress has been moderate even in
most favorable instances. Manufacturers de
clare that they see no way for large operations
at current rates until cloth rises. Cloth is in
active. Best shirtings and common heavy sized
sorts of ordinary width are in demand and well
engaged, There is fair inquiry for jacconets.
There are some orders for dhootieS but they
are mostly nfeaSible. Best printers are steady.
Common are dull and NEGLECTED. Colored goods
are not readily saleable, prices having increased
owing to the rise in yarn, while buyers are I'M
willing to pay the advance Heavy goods are
in demand in moderate quantities. "

Green & Go. s report on cotton futures SAYS:
Considerable irregJlarity on the market has
been shown. but the general development was
weak and principally in buyers favor. Some
shrinkage of receipts and rather more cheerful
accounts from abroad afforded bulls an oppor-
tunity to temporarily recover the tone after the
opening, but no real demand followed and longs,
attempting to unload, the cost gradually took a
downward incline and remained tame with
final rates points below last evening and the
tone more or less tame. Stocks at the South
commence to show growing balance and cot
ton is still tending in this direction with consid
cradle freedom
